Join Leading Investors as They Analyze Opportunities & Share Strategies to Profit from the Clean Energy Transition

While the IRA, IIJA, CHIPs Act, the LPO program, and other DOE funds provided a tremendous injection of public money into clean energy investment in the U.S., the changes were so far-reaching that it required many months of work and clarification of issues to come to grips with the opportunities and risks involved in the new, greatly expanded range of potential investments. Leading investors did their homework, analyzing a host of rapidly-evolving market, financial, macroeconomic, political and technological developments, and have developed more focused investment strategies across the expanded range of technologies and asset classes clamoring for capital.

Infocast has organized this remarkable event to share the views of these leading investors regarding the comparative risks and opportunities represented by solar and wind platforms, energy storage, green hydrogen, carbon capture, EV infrastructure, domestic manufacturing, geothermal, RNG, and alternative fuels. They will also share their views on how a variety of related factors, including recent developments in financing markets for clean energy, key policy decisions, legal interpretations and tax guidance, and the macroeconomic and political outlook have affected their investment strategies.

This is a unique opportunity for investors and those seeking capital for their projects to understand the perspectives of the country’s leading investors and other key stakeholders in the clean energy space, and to meet and network with both capital providers and energy project sponsors. Please review our list of faculty members and our agenda and reserve your place today.

  • Get up-to-the-minute briefings on how investors weigh the opportunities and challenges associated with solar and wind platforms, energy storage, green hydrogen, carbon capture, EV infrastructure, domestic manufacturing, geothermal, RNG and alternative fuels
  • Understand the impacts on investment strategies of today’s macroeconomic trends and the upcoming elections
  • Hear investors lay out their appetites for various financing options: debt market, tax equity market, tax credit transfer market, and the sponsor market
  • Receive up-to-the-minute updates on key policy decisions and legal interpretations, including IRS guidance on IRA incentives, as well as the development of new financial structures to more effectively utilize tax incentives and increase potential profits
  • Learn how the money from the IRA, IIJA, CHIPs Act, the LPO program and other DOE funds are impacting private capital strategies and affecting investor comfort levels in the various assets
